Yeah its a funny hobby and if you play hard it'll get in shape. But it's a pricey hobby. I was into it for a while. If you need anything paintball related from the markers ro the balls I can get it for you at a dealer price. We (the Marines here in Jax) have a PMI dealer account cause we take our Marine students out for some paint ball fun every couple of months.
can u give me price on paint? shrApnel paintballs

I don't if we can get that brand. Are you sure it's spelled right? PM me what you want I'll get the prices to you. We can get good PMI paint for around $30 a case (2000 balls).
PMI/RPS makes it

Paintball is an adrenaline rush.
I played tournament for a 1-1/2 years, I played back and Mid. Most of the time I would close the game. The price (with support) for the paint, broke me, Playing back I would start a match with 11 pods (NXE 5+4+2) @ 160 per pod, Damn near a case of paint per match. I love the sport, but in tournament you have to deal with so many cheaters. I can begin to tell ya how many times I wanted to tank an ahole.
And the politics :rolleyes: , we did a fun tournament just South of Deland, we won all but two matches, down to the finals for number 1. Needless to say the team that won was a local "X-Ball Team", came down to a one on one, talk about a wiping player and corrupt refs. That was the last time I played...
Speed Ball Is Cool But I Cant Aford The Paint

Huh? I have a fill station with a scale. So you can properly fill the tank, I have only overfilled one once. They don't blow up either. They have a burst disk on the bottle that will blow and release the pressure.
I've never played but it has always sounded like fun. For me the limiting factors have always been time and money. I'd like to give it a go some time.
its fun until you get nailed in the boys

Lots of $$$ gets spent if you're into paint ball. A case of good paint will cost you over $50 and if you want to get a good marker thats not out dated you're going pay any where from $300 to $2500. I had a Tippman A5 that I trade one of my Nitro power HPI Savage RC 4wd trucks for (another really $$$ hobby). I had too many hobbies at that time dirt bike (still have and trying to sell), nitro R/C, paint ball, and 4wheeling. So I got out of all of them but the most important one 4wheeling.
any news on paint yet steven>?

*Thread Hijack*
I like your avatar P Nueve my grandparents were very much into that organzation due to my uncle being MIA until from 1968 til 1989 when they found a few pieces of his body at the site where he was shot down in a South Viet helicopter over Laos.When they brought him back here it was quite the big deal CNN covered it and over 5000 people showed up for the funeral. he was awarded several medals(silver star was 1) from his Green Beret Col.He was a member of the 5th group Special Forces.As far as I know they still to this day will not tell my grandmother(my grandfather has since passed) what he was doing on this mission. But before he went he sent his Beret home to his Dad(my grandfather) saying that this Beret and him have seen and done lots of things he can't discuss,but please keep it safe for me.Unfortuneatly he never made it home to get it back.
*Back to your regular paintball thread*

No one. Its hard enough for us to get $$$ to build our rigs. Do you think we are gonna waist $$$ on running around shooting each other?!? I admit its fun, but in florida its too hot to play 9 months out of the year and its expensive as crap!

I used to play when in HS. I still have 2 guns, but one is broken. My brother has a gun too. So yeah I'll play.

Another reason not to play PB is the free time you have to play PB could used WHEELING.
Iggy, I found out about the paintballs you asked about and I found that inorder to get paintballs from them we have to order in bulk. I don't know when we're going to take the Marine students to play again but when we do I'll let you know. I'll get the price on the tank and googles when I get back to work, Wed.
Steven
u can give me the price in bulk tooo how many cases
usmcracing
08-22-2006, 10:04 AM
A lot of cases of paint. I don't know but I'll find out on Wed. I don't think you're going to want to buy to that much paint at one time. Paint Balls has a very short self life.
its gonna be between me and 6 or 7 others

I've been getting into airsoft with a bunch of the guys from Gator4x4 and it's a blast too and a lot cheaper than paintball. If you don't know what it is it's just like paintball but with BB guns that shoot plastic BBs. Its a whole lot cheaper than paintball too.
I have full auto AK47 that made of metal not plastic for $80 shipped. No gas to bother with and 2000 BBs cost like $5!!

who makes the gun what kinda battery it uses i was gonna get a tokeyo mari ak
91toyota4x4
08-30-2006, 06:32 PM
cyma cm028 or cm028s is the gun
the s model uses a smaller battery because it is folding stock. i have a bid on a full stock one right now too. if you want it i will sell it to you because i don't need 2. but hopefully i get outbid on it so i dont have to get it.
it is a mauri clone. all mauri upgrades can be used on this gun! same thing 1/3 the price. only slight differences but the mauri is made of a little better materials. the TM is made in japan, this one china.
we've been playing out at moonscape its a blast cept for the skeeters

I've played airsoft a bunch, a chief in my band is a 13 year old stuck in a 45 year olds body and he has tons of $$$ to boot. He brought 10+ guns with him on a 6 day long trip a while back and we went balistic!!! :D Those things sure can hurt when you pump the $hit out of them and play in the confines of a hotel room! :eek:

We had some guns in tellico and we were shooting everything up for a week! But when I played vs the guys with full auto guns and I had my single shot pistol I knew I had to get a big one. It's cool because it looks like the real deal. If you took the orange tip off you couldn't tell the gun was fake from more than 10 feet away. You could seriously rob a bank with one.

Sorry about never getting back to you about the flea stuff. I have been so beyond busy for the last few weeks I dont know which way is up! :confused: You didnt buy/acquire that stuff yet did you? If you did then PM me your number and we can find a way to hook. If not then dont worry about it. Thanks for your help and willingness to hook me up but since Jack has been gone a while we have been able to get a handle on the flea mess he left behind.
On the doors though, can you get a pic for me? they dont need to be great. I am going to chop them up anyway and make half doors. Thanks man!

Iggy, if you cant post anything even remotely relavent, or even remotely close to english for that matter, dont post at all! Your a great guy and I love hanging out with ya and wheelin or whatever but I am tired of the only 17 year old kid on our board being pretty much the only one who drops F-bombs and other nonsense left and right for pretty much no reason at all. Dont get me wrong, I have got a mouth on me that needs a littel soap BUT 90% of the stuff you post is nonsese and not neccessary. Plus, us military guys lose access to these sites at work VERY quickly if NMCI detects this sort of junk. Keep it clean!! Thanks man. ;)
